1. I remember Grant Park from 1968.

2. To my knowledge ...
... no person has ever said that Rahm is not a dick, for saying such a thing would expose the one who said it to endless laughter, shame, and ridicule.

3. It's like the old joke about "Why do lawyers wear neckties?"

6. Excellent observation
I would add that even Rahm himself wouldn't disagree. In fact, his dickishness is a point of pride with him. Look in his mouth and you'll see three rows of teeth, and it's that ingrained viciousness that will prove to be his undoing.

4. Rahm played this so stupid. The protest didn't make the online trib or suntimes until
the arrests happened. I left the rally at 8pm after the march. Everything was very peaceful the cops were cooperating with the organizers. I went home checked Suntimes.com and chicagotribune.com no mention of the rally and march that had thousands of people. MSM was trying to ignore us. I woke up this morning and it's now all over the front page. :) Kudos to the brave people who got arrested!
